Mitsubishi has taken a bit more chances than other big car-makers with the look of its electric car. The Chevrolet Volt, the Nissan LEAF, the Ford Focus Electric, even the Tesla Model S; they all look pretty similar to the other vehicles on the road these days. In fact, the 2004 Toyota Prius looks more out-there than most electric cars on the market right now.

But the Mitsubishi i MiEV (now known as just the "i") has taken a different approach from the very beginning, looking more like a space jellybean than a Corolla, and Mitsubishi is not backing off. Ahead of the Geneva Motor Show, it has released images of the CA-MiEV electric concept car, and it looks just as spacey.
